After Horus' defeat, the increasingly unhinged Night Haunter battled on against overwhelming odds until he was tracked down by a Callidus agent on the world of Tsagualsa. The Khan's battered body carried him to the heart of the storm. The Space Wolves were known to boast of theirs as the Emperor's executioners. The hall was still in torment, with Battle-Brothers at each other's throats, lost in a maddened world of battle-cries and muzzle-flares. As for the Khan himself, once the violence of restoration had ebbed, he retreated to his chambers on the flagship and took counsel on the Legion's next move. Afterwards, Jaghatai came to believe that the outcome of the Council of Nikaea should have never been left in the Crimson King's hands. One did not kill an entire planet without aftershocks. The force that finally assembled in the skies above Chogoris in those early years of Jaghatai's command was not a unified Legion. In the end, Horus and his followers marched on Terra and laid siege to the Imperial Palace, but with loyalist reinforcements en route, Horus risked all in one last gamble. But they were hindered at every turn -- trapped by the Ruinstorm, the massive Warp Storm conjured by the Word Bearers Traitor Legion during the Calth Atrocity, that blocked off large portions of the Milky Way Galaxy to both interstellar travel and communications. The woman crawled free, darting into the relative safety of the chamber's inner mechanisms. A White Scars Astartes is always willing to face the xenos foes of Mankind. Still pursued by the forces of the Death Guard and the Emperor's Children, the White Scars discovered the location of the Dark Glass and intended to use it to instantaneously travel to the Sol System. They had purposely kept the Vth Legion's fleet at Chondax until they could be sure the White Scars had picked up Dorn's message and call for aid. Why the silence? Duty could now be done, the call to war could be given. Worse still, they counselled that this domination was being exerted upon the human population of Drune via a series of extradimensional portals, each centred upon one of the major mesa-top cities. Jaghatai strode out of the failing storm of light and cast a baleful gaze across the bridge. On this, though, Jhagatai always argued the same way. The Great Khan, himself a builder of empires, was handed a destiny that saw him resigned to the role of servant and not master, bound to the ambitions of the Emperor. Theodor-Heuss-Allee 3 | Maritim Hotel, 60486 Frankfurt, Hesse, Germany (Westend-Sud) +49 69 75781148. There was no time. Many Imperial savants now wonder how different later ages might be had only Jaghatai stayed his final strike or but delayed it long enough for the behemoth to press its assault upon his brothers. No longer were they a shadow that haunted the fringes of the Great Crusade -- the Great Khan had brought them into the light and he intended The First Blooding to stand at the forefront of the Emperor's Great Crusade, shoulder to shoulder with the other Legions. He informed Shiban and his men that the bridge was sealed. She informed Shiban that she had the Khagan's locus. Each tribe the Talaskars conquered was absorbed into the larger Talaskar confederacy and Jaghatai made military service mandatory while splitting tribes up and merging them with others to remove and ameliorate tribal differences and long-standing blood feuds. Angron is one of the few Daemon Primarchs to have launched major campaigns after the Horus Heresy, most infamously leading a horde of berserkers at the First War for Armageddon. The Khan explained that their brother Horus had purposely sent him away, for there were no accidents. Curze spent months torturing Vulkan to try to break his will. Resulting in massive losses and massive slogs that could have been resolved in other ways. If the enemy had been Greenskins, they would have kept going -- carving into the organs, making sure -- but these were their brothers. At least, amidst all the numbness, the truth was now known. In these final years of the conquest there were fewer wild spaces for the White Scars to make war as they liked. Soon more of the creatures materialised; first a few, then dozens. Of these the closest was Magnus the Red of Prospero, for he was also an outcast in the small society of their peers and a man of integrity and brusque honesty. Jaghatai Khan was nominated by Horus as campaign commander. The Vth Legion's legend was to grow with the events of the Horus Heresy, when the White Scars fought on hundreds of worlds for over 7 Terran years against the Traitor Legions and the other Forces of Chaos. 9 photos. The battles red edge is your home, the respect of your kinsmen your hearth. The tenacity of the Death Guard was legendary, as was their ability to absorb punishment and just keep coming. White Scars had their own version of Strategic reserves, known as Encirclement. He had destroyed the Librarius of the Legions only to find witches were now untrammelled amongst the Traitors. Prospero had once been a jewel of a world, a pale-orb the colour of a Terran dawn, banded with lilac and under-lit by glistening ice caps. That same night, his Legion razed the unnamed city to ruin. At the same time, he dispatched a grand summons, calling upon all of the disparate bands of the Vth Legion, the scattered Pioneer Companies that warred across the galaxy, to attend him. They had not lost critical numbers of ships, but the sudden attack run had blown their formation wide open and destroyed the cohesion that they had so painstakingly built. A vast avalanche pushed him and his group back down the mountain, killing the normal men. It had begun in the Chondax System, right towards the end of the long and brutal Chondax Campaign against the Greenskins -- the first inkling that all was not well in the wider Imperium. Commanders still use the title Warmaster but are aware of its sordid history, the. They were becoming obsolete, unnecessary to the empire that was to be; the Khan of Khans knew it and it made him restless. No markers, no idents marked them, just sub-Warp signatures and the telltale flicker of Void Shield activation. They were clad in pale, thick-slabbed Terminator Armour and carried huge Power Scythes known as Manreapers. It was home to wandering tribes of vicious, nomadic horsemen and pastoralists who fought each other for their ancestral lands. The scars inflicted as part of the ritual vary in size, shape and placement, and among the original tribesmen of Chogoris, this would serve to mark out different tribes and bloodlines, though among those not born of Chogoris, the significance was less important. The Khan looked up at the blade. The only reason Vulkan didn't kill him the moment he got free was to disprove Curze's insistence that he was just as brutal as his maddened brother. Hasik went rigid, impaled just below his hearts, unable to respond as searing energies rippled across his body and locked him in paralysis. None can say what befell the primarch -- if he was lost in the Warp or if he was slain or captured at the hands of an alien warlord -- but the White Scars believe he still hunts across the galaxy, and beyond, in pursuit of his greatest foes. They had no wish to kill if it could be avoided -- they immobilized, shattered bones, throttled and bludgeoned, then moved on, sprinting further up through the throng of warriors. The meaning was clear, its origin unambiguous. But the Khan was not moved by these demands. He slew his brother Sanguinius and mortally wounded his father, only to regain enough clarity to realize what he had done, begging the Emperor to destroy him once and for all. A few smaller vessels never made it to the muster, either destroyed by the Death Guard during the engagement or disappearing quietly, presumed unwilling to accept the rejection of their planned accord with the Traitors. The White Scars coordinated to perform a standard zao (known in Low Gothic as "The Chisel") manoeuvre -- full-fleet, enacted on a single command from the Vth Legion's flagship Swordstorm. With his death, the traitors fled in disarray, the Heresy was ended, and the Imperium's grim fate was sealed. He kept sending his legion in with grinding, relentless assaults, treating it all as a numbers game. Russ is exasperated by him. Khan fought hundreds of battles against other tribes and defeated hunting packs of nobles sent by the Palatine. Khan's troops repelled several frenzied counterattacks from the Traitors, and began firing on Horus' unprotected dropships. From the wide plains of Chogoris, the rugged wastes of Kolarne and Old Earth's many recruitment camps, the Khagan replenished the ranks of the Legion and the White Scars emerged from the Kolarne Circle campaign a Legion reborn. Mortarion was cast to the world of Barbarus, a planet of high mountains swathed in clouds of poison, ruled by monstrous overlords who preyed upon the humans huddling in the livable valleys below. At first the Khan did not believe the evidence of his senses for a long time. With the behemoth slain, and the Warp portals through which the aliens had exerted their domination sealed, hundreds of millions of meat-puppets collapsed wherever they were standing, never to rise again. The White Scars went after them, harrying, strafing, hurling all their pent-up fury in a maelstrom of Lance-energy. The Psychneuein had not followed him down, but the absence of any movement beyond his own was chilling. Things were now moving very quickly. Leading the way, Shiban and his warriors tore through the oncoming las-fire, jerking and ducking to avoid the beams, sweeping past a whole row of angled torpedo launchers and streaking towards the signalled port. Some 40,000 cells fall off your skin every hour but, sometimes, those dead cells clog up a pore. As the White Scars' vessels began to move, the Alpha Legion reacted. Secretly, the White Scars resented the outsiders' disregard greatly, and yet they refused to change their ways or Legion culture. He had been so easy to keep out of the conversation. The infant Angron was discovered by a slaver on the world of Nuceria, surrounded by the corpses of alien attackers. Jaghatai Khan, primarch of the White Scars. Targutai Yesugai led a small strike force onto the crystalline space station, desperate to make use of the Dark Glass. He wanted every human psyker to unlock their full potential, to explore all they were safely capable of -- with no restraint, and no guidance. The Khan was incredulous at this statement. Though Arvida seriously contemplated becoming a part of a Legion once more, he eventually refused -- he would would remain, always and forever, a Son of Magnus and a loyal servant of the Emperor. All Legions had reputations, and some of these overlapped. What, if anything, happened to Omegon is still not known. A ghostly outline of a figure flickered, burning coldly. A reckoning would come, the Khan cried, addressing the hundreds who waited for guidance. If Magnus had not already made up his mind on which side of the conflict he would be on, then he soon would, and then Mortarion would be surrounded. Indeed, of all of his new brother Primarchs, only Roboute Guilliman and Rogal Dorn objected to the all too brief period of induction that Jaghatai received. Jaghatai Khan made his way through the newly discovered tunnels. The secrets hidden within their reactor hearts were jealously guarded by the lords of the Red Planet and shared with no one outside the privileged circles of the elect. The Primarchs were sorely tested, for while such as they could scarcely know fear, each soon bore a dozen and more hurts. Jaghatai, who had struggled long with the disunity of his adopted people, saw clearly the benefits of the Imperium and the Emperor's secular doctrine of the Imperial Truth, and in the ranks of the Luna Wolves he saw the dire cost of opposition. Mortarion informed Jaghatai that their respective starships were at war. Most acrimonious of all is Operation Chronos, in which a venerated Raven Guard Chaplain fell to Enslaver domination in circumstances where a nearby White Scars force might have been able to intervene. The Keshig master replied that unfortunately they did not. As the Swordstorm broke free of the Warp on the Prospero System's outer limits, the warship's systems were brought online and began to run forward Augursweeps. Jaghatai Khan had never taken sides. Slowly, grindingly, Jaghatai Khan hefted Hasik off the ground one-handed, pulling him upwards until their faces were level. Appointments 216.444.5725. It was how their Stormseers had become so powerful. They fought with cold-discipline, going through the movements with consummate skill but taking no joy in it. Horus had sponsored them, and Lorgar had shown them new tricks. The Khan never agreed with this obfuscation of the truth, especially the Emperor's refusal to explain to His people the dangers of Chaos, and father and son had often argued over the matter. White Scars Space Wolves Imperial Fists Blood Angels Iron Hands Ultramarines Salamanders Raven Guard Noteworthy Second Founding Chapters Black Templars Crimson Fists Flesh Tearers Noteworthy Chapters of the Dark Thirteenth Founding Exorcists Death Spectres Noteworthy Chapters of the Cursed Twenty-First Founding The Legion of the Damned Such abasement did not come easily to such a conqueror as he, one who had slain kings and tyrants across the breadth of Chogoris, but still the Great Khan knelt before this Emperor. Everything had changed so quickly, garbled in a flurry of contradictory astropathy and secure comm-bursts: Russ of the Space Wolves had gone rogue; or the Warmaster had, taking several Legions with him; the White Scars were ordered to reinforce the Alpha Legion at the Alaxxes Nebula; Ferrus Manus had killed the peacock Fulgrim; Mars and the Mechanicum was in open revolt against the Emperor.
